Radio, waypoints, bringing a group to my location..

[gopherman 10]

Ok, radio Alpha is set up to create a waypoint at my location and bring the group to it, this all works fine.

But the radio is set to repeatedly, because I want my support to follow up as I clear the area ahead. It only works once though.

while {count waypoints MSV > 0} do {deletewaypoint (waypoints MSV select 0)};

I have this code in in front of this code

MSV = MSV addWaypoint [(getpos player1), 0]; [MSV, 0] setWaypointType "move"

in the On Activation field of the radio.

Any help as to why this works only once?

If you want them to follow you, why not just have them join your group?

Also, waypoint 0 is a unit's initial position, not its first waypoint. I realize that this is counter-intuitive because waypoint 0 is the name of the first waypoint in the editor, but this is how Bohemia decided to do it. You have to add one to each waypoint number in the editor when translating over to scripting.

My group is full and so I want to have a better element of control over the vehicle packets following up.

Could you spell it out for me in plain English (or code!!) what I need to do to get that working? Thanks :)

radioalpha set to repeat.

on act: nul=[player1] execVM "move.sqf"

move.sqf

_unit = _this select 0;

_wp1 = MSV addwaypoint [position _unit, 0];
_wp1 setwaypointtype "MOVE";
_wp1 setWaypointSpeed "FULL";
_wp1 setWaypointBehaviour "AWARE";
_wp1 setWaypointCombatMode "YELLOW";
_wp1 setWaypointStatements  ["true",""];
MSV setCurrentWaypoint _wp1

if (true) exitwith {};
